The renowned comic star narrated his uncomfortable and humbling moment with his kids during a discussion with Charly D, Kwaku Manu, and other actors of the Love Bondage web series.

The comedian said he was shocked when his young daughter questioned her for using a vulgar word in one of his viral videos.

The word Kimberly referenced was from an insulting video recorded last year, when his mental health issues had worsened.

Talking to his colleagues, Funny Face said he became embarrassed when his youngest child asked her the question in public.

To save the moment, he said he hurriedly told his daughter to stop using the word and apologised by explaining to her that he was not in the right state of mind at the time.

"There is a lot they don't understand. They have a lot of questions and I must be ready to answer. I was so embarrassed and filled with regret," Funny Face emphasised.

The comedian's experience with his kids reminded scores of fans about his lengthy period of mental health struggles.

The issues separated him from the children for about five years and led him into one trouble after another, including a near-fatal car accident.
